While we love the kids in our lives, we will not be able to accommodate children at our wedding. Please make arrangements for childcare if you plan to attend. We want the adults to take a well-deserved night off!
Can I bring a plus-one?
Due to limited venue capacity, we are unable to accommodate plus ones at our wedding unless specifically indicated on your envelope or in the RSVP section of this website. We appreciate your understanding.
What is the dress code?
We ask that you wear “Semi Formal/Dressy Casual” attire. For this time of year in Maryland, we suggest the following:
Women – sundresses, mid-length dresses, dressy lightweight separates, etc. You may need to walk on grass so stiletto heels are not recommended.
Men – dress shirt with slacks or khakis; jackets and ties optional
Where should I stay if I'm from out of town?
See the "Travel" tab for information regarding our hotel block with discounted rates. If the block fills up or you cannot stay at this hotel, there are many other hotel options in the surrounding area.
Is there parking at the venue?
Our wedding venue has plenty of free parking available should you choose to drive. Cars may be left at the venue overnight and picked up early the following morning. *Drinking and driving will not be tolerated.*
Will the ceremony & reception be indoors or outdoors?
Both will be outdoors. In the case of bad weather, the EFI team will transform the reception space into a beautiful ceremony spot! The intended ceremony location and reception tent are right next to each other so it won't change too much.
What will the ceremony be like?
The ceremony will be an outdoor Catholic Wedding Service lasting around 30 minutes. Communion will not be offered as this will not be a full Mass.
Will the ceremony & reception be wheelchair accessible?
Absolutely! There is a side door ramp entrance into the building, handicap parking directly next to an entrance to the tent, and ground-level handicap friendly bathrooms.
Is there an open bar?
We will be providing several beer & wine options, as well as two signature cocktail drinks.
Can I take and post pictures of the wedding on social media?
Of course! We do ask that you refrain from taking photos during the ceremony, as we want to keep it unplugged & leave that part to the professionals! For the rest of the wedding, we encourage guests to post pictures/videos using our wedding hashtag #LetsPauley
